Chapter 291 The three-eyed portrait standing underwater
Normal people would never build a house by a lake surrounded by mountains on three sides, let alone dig a huge deep puddle in the center of their home. There is no other purpose in saying so.
Who would believe it?
The structure of this place is exactly the same as that seen in the Immortal King's Palace. However, in the Immortal King's Palace, there is no such puddle in the middle. Except for this, the rest of the surrounding ring-shaped ancient village buildings and the surrounding stone walls are all the same.
"Xiuxian, do you believe there is a demon lake?" Feng Yu asked.
"When did I, Zhang Xiuxian, ever believe this?"
"Well, we have to go down there and see what's down there."
Zhang Xiuxian did not refute. He thought in his heart that there is a treasure down there, most likely. "It's okay to go down, but the two of us can't go on like this. What if there really is a lake monster down there? Have you forgotten what Yu Xiang said?"
Feng Yu's water quality is not as good as Zhang Xiuxian's. Zhang Xiuxian has been with the army, fought wolves in the mountains, and caught fish in the sea. If he really wants to go down, Zhang Xiuxian has to take the lead. For a landlubber from the north like Feng Yu, he is unwilling to do so.
Go down, but the matter has reached this point. If we don’t go down to find out more, the affairs of the Hai family will be even less clear.
Feng Yu took out the oxygen bottle he was carrying. He originally wanted to deal with altitude sickness, but he didn't expect it to come in handy at this time. The oxygen inside was enough for three to five minutes. Because it was a portable oxygen bottle, the amount was not very large.
Feng Yu stood on the edge and hesitated. He was wondering what Bai Ran would find in Haijia. Has he ever gone down to this huge puddle underground? There is also the demon lake mentioned by Yuxiang. Will they encounter it if they go down rashly?
Are you in danger? But if you don't go down, won't this trip be in vain?
When he was struggling, Zhang Xiuxian had already taken off his clothes and put his backpack and things on a high place aside. He was wearing a pair of big pants and was soaked with water up to his heels. The courtyard design of Haijia was very strange. The entire house was built on
On the water, all the passages inside and the water at the bottom of the house are almost below the heel. According to common sense, it is definitely unrealistic to live in this place.
Seeing Feng Yu standing there for a long time, Zhang Xiuxian asked anxiously: "I said, can you please hurry up? If you don't get off, I'll get off first."
"Why are you anxious? There is no one else here, and there is a baby underneath that can't escape. Why are you anxious?" Feng Yu said as he took action. When he was ready, Zhang Xiuxian eagerly jumped in with a "plop".
Feng Yu looked into the puddle. It was pitch black. He had no time to think about anything else at this time. Feng Yu took a deep breath, picked up the oxygen bottle, and jumped in.
The moment he entered the water, the first thing Feng Yu felt was the biting cold. The temperature under the water was indeed very low, but fortunately he could still move. This was probably because it was in a valley, and maybe there were
Hot springs come out of the ground.
The line of sight underwater was relatively dark, and basically nothing could be seen clearly in the depths. Feng Yu slowed down in the water and began to look for Zhang Xiuxian. He swam very fast, so this environment was not a problem for him, so this
As soon as the guy got off, he went to the bottom.
Feng Yu followed, and his eyes adjusted to the light under the water. Due to the mountaineering goggles and the dimness of the water, his vision became very uncomfortable, but with Zhang Xiuxian leading the way, he felt a little more relaxed.
Zhang Xiuxian came from the special forces and received regular training. Underwater is one of the compulsory subjects. He can come and go freely in the water. As soon as he comes in, he rushes to the bottom.
After diving for about half a minute, we reached the bottom. The view below was very blurry, but we could still see clearly. There was a layer of stone bricks underneath. The bricks were not big, and the specifications looked more like those from the Song and Yuan Dynasties.
Feng Yu didn't find anything else. He thought that there was a large reservoir underneath?
At this time, Zhang Xiuxian pulled Feng Yu down, and Feng Yu followed him to another place. He saw a stone statue suddenly appeared in the middle. Zhang Xiuxian gestured to Feng Yu and asked him to go over and check it out.
The stone statue standing underwater looked very strange in such an environment. It was extremely dark. Feng Yu could hardly see it clearly with his eyes. After a closer look, he could recognize its general appearance. The statue was as tall as two people, and many parts of its body were covered with underground water.
After being polished flat, there are basically not many physical features left, but it can still be seen that the shape of the clothes on the body has Tibetan characteristics, indicating that this stone statue was carved based on a certain ethnic group.
Feng Yu thought to himself, could this person be someone from the Hai family who wants to stand here?
Zhang Xiuxian pulled Feng Yu again, this time very eagerly, as if he had discovered something. Zhang Xiuxian asked Feng Yu to look at the head of the stone statue, but he saw that there were three eyes on the head of the stone statue, and the middle one was on the door.
, and his expression is very difficult to understand, he seems to be smiling but not smiling, and he seems to be crying but not crying.
Zhang Xiuxian was startled. After looking carefully, Zhang Xiuxian discovered that the eye on the door was carved with black stone.
Feng Yu was still in a state of shock when he saw Zhang Xiuxian's evil intentions. He took out a short knife and tried to pry the black stone from his eyes.
Feng Yu gestured with Zhang Xiuxian in Zhongshui and told him to stop. Zhang Xiuxian was very frustrated and went to explore other places. He came down to hunt for treasures. If he didn't bring anything with him, he always felt that he was at a loss.
Feng Yu looked around the stone statue, fearing that Zhang Xiuxian was causing trouble, so he quickly chased after him.
As expected, Zhang Xiuxian then found the second, third and fourth stone statues. There were ten in total underneath. All the stone statues were exactly the same shape. They were two people tall, had unpredictable expressions, and had three hairs.
Only eyes.
Feng Yu was puzzled. If he said three
The only eye is Erlang God descending to earth, so there are ten Erlang Gods descending to earth below. Obviously these stone statues are not Erlang God. The most likely possibility is that they are some kind of belief, something similar to worshiping gods.
Ancient Tibetans worshiped many things, most of which came from what they saw in life. There were geese flying in the sky, wild beasts running on the ground, or certain flying insects, as well as certain sacred stones or utensils that could be seen everywhere.
The three eyes may also be some kind of fetish.
Fortunately, with Feng Yu around, Zhang Xiuxian didn't pry off any of the black stones in his eyes and take them away. Otherwise, if Zhang Xiuxian came down alone, he would have brought up ten black stones.
Due to oxygen consumption, they had to return when their stay time was up. Finally, Zhang Xiuxian discovered another underwater passage leading to another place, and the one connected to the other end was most likely the so-called Demon Lake.
Feng Yu signaled to Zhang Xiuxian that they had to go back first. Zhang Xiuxian was still unfinished. He felt that he had not gotten anything and was unwilling to go up. He wanted to continue along the underwater passage to see where it would lead.
Under Feng Yu's pull, Zhang Xiuxian and Feng Yu returned to the top together.
The first words that came out of the water, Zhang Xiuxian shouted at Feng Yu: "What do you always pull me to do? Isn't it just a few black stones? When did we become timid? What's under there?"
You saw that there is another passage, don’t you want to see what’s on the other side?”
Feng Yu said calmly: "There will most likely be a mechanism on the eye. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it's better to stay as still as possible. Besides, the amount of oxygen is not very large. If the passage is very long, even if you use it when returning,
Not enough."
Zhang Xiuxian climbed to the edge of the puddle and agreed to Feng Yu reluctantly. He thought of something else and said: "Hey, holy shit, did you see it just now? Is that the Erlang God under the water? The stone statue with three eyes.
It’s so fucking weird.”
"That's not Erlangshen."
"Not Erlangshen? What is that? Ancestor of the Hai family?"
Feng Yu explained, "I don't know, but the stone statue must be related to the Hai family, and the design outside is the same as the Immortal King's Palace, so it may be inextricably linked to the Feng family."
Zhang Xiuxian couldn't care about anything else. He said to Feng Yu: "I don't care, I have to go down and take a look later."
Feng Yu knew that Zhang Xiuxian would not give up until he reached the Yellow River, and he would just give up without catching any treasures.
"I'm afraid we don't have enough oxygen. I'm going to borrow Yuxiang's. The two of us can only go down one."
After hearing this, Zhang Xiuxian immediately said firmly: "Then I must go down. I am good at water, and you stay up there to take care of me."
Before Feng Yu could say anything, he saw Yuxiang coming from the door.
